3 common connection methods for indexing output

The indexer is applied to the turntable, and most of the applications are intermittent rotation. Li'anyin engineers believe that the indexer is used as a drive source under the action of a motor, and is connected to the disc of the turntable. Its transfer method can be divided into Flange connection, shaft connection, shaft and flange combination connection, etc.

The method of flange connection means that the output end of the indexer is a hollow flange output. The flange surface of the indexer coincides with the center point of the disc, and the screw hole in the center of the disc is consistent with the hole position of the flange connection surface of the indexer. For the screw fastening connection, the engineers from Li'an Yin told everyone that it should be noted that at the beginning of the design, the working position of the disc must be consistent with the static position of the indexer. That is to say, the fixed hole of the disc must be processed. Refer to the position of the screw holes on the flange surface when the indexer is at rest. Flange surface connection is mostly used in large discs and cam indexers, which is an important factor to ensure the stable operation of indexers.

The shaft connection is used for the output of the cam indexer shaft, such as the DS spindle type cam indexer. The shaft connection is mostly used in indirect connections, reducers, gears and other mechanisms. The shaft of the indexer and the hollow structure drive device are keyed To connect, in actual use, there will be inconsistencies between the hollow aperture of the indexer shaft and the driven device, which can be done through a coupling.

The connection between the shaft and the hole refers to a flange-type indexer. The output structure of the indexer is a small short shaft and a flange surface. Li'anyin engineers believe that this is a type of indexer that is commonly used, especially for high-speed turntables. There are many cases of the machine. The short shaft is connected to the center hole of the disc, and the flange surface is used to fix the connecting surface. As with the flange type, it is also necessary to pay attention to the static position of the indexer to be consistent with the actual processing position.

The connection method of the turntable and the cam indexer is a question that must be considered at the beginning of the design of the automation system, because it involves the selection of the subsequent indexer. For the initial designer, it is recommended to contact the indexer manufacturer to complete the indexer selection After that, the output mode of the cam indexer is determined, and the design of the disc will be better
